“Badlands”

In "Badlands," the New Mutants face the terrifying Demon Bear in a surreal, nightmarish landscape, where reality itself seems to unravel. As the team confronts the beast, strange transformations occur—officer Tom Corsi and nurse Sharon Friedlander are suddenly changed into figures from another time, while Danielle Moonstar is stunned by the unexpected return of her parents, freed from the creature’s grasp. Written by Chris Claremont and brought to life with striking, surreal art by Bill Sienkiewicz—both in story and on the cover—this issue blends psychological tension with supernatural dread in a way only this era of The New Mutants could deliver.
